Technical Abstract

An object of an example embodiment of the present disclosure is to stably estimate a navigation status of a target ship at a predetermined time from time-series position information of the ship. A ship behavior analyzing device according to the example embodiment of the present disclosure includes a ship detection means for detecting a ship from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data, a wake extraction means for extracting a wake of the detected ship, a wake pattern generation means for generating a wake pattern image by using the extracted wake, and a navigation status estimation means for estimating a navigation status of the target ship by using the generated wake pattern image.

Patent Claims
4 claims

Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

2

2. The ship behavior analyzing device according to claim 1, wherein the instructions are executable by the at least one processor to estimate the navigation status of the ship by using a learned parameter generated in advance by machine learning by using a plurality of wake patterns and a correct navigation status corresponding to each of the plurality of wake patterns.

3

3. The ship behavior analyzing device according to claim 2, wherein the instructions are executable by the at least one processor to generate the wake patterns in such a way that the wake is drawn by a different drawing method according to a speed of the ship.

4

4. The ship behavior analyzing device according to claim 3, wherein the drawing method is selected from a group including a line color, a line thickness, and a line type of the wake pattern.

5

5. The ship behavior analyzing device according to claim 1, wherein the instructions are executable by the at least one processor to detect the ship by using adaptive thresholding.
